1) Praveen Kumar is the (A) / taller and Strongest (B) /boy in the college (C)/ No Error (D)
Answer: (B)
Praveen Kumar is the tallest and Strongest boy in the college.

We can only connect similar type of degrees using ‘and’.
Tallest, Strongest – both are superlatives.

2) Wait here, unless (A)/ the train arrives (B) /No Error (C).
Answer: (A)
Wait here, Until the train arrives

Until , Unless cannot be used interchangeably.
Until – used for time (Till the point of time).
Unless – used for action (Unless = if not).

3) Religion is the brighter (A)/ ornament with which (B) / the young can bedeck themselves (C) / No Error (D).
Answer: (A)
Religion is the brightest ornament with which the young can bedeck themselves.

Superlative degree uses ‘’The” , Comparative degree uses “than” , should not mix the key words of comparative & Superlative.

4) Sanjana was somehow (A)/ more happier than (B) / she had been in years (C) / No Error (D)
Answer: (B)
Sanjana was somehow happier than she had been in years.

Use happier or more happy ; more happier – error.

5) Mithun is smarter (A) / than any employee (B) / of his firm (C) / No Error (D).
Answer: (B)
Mithun is smarter than any other employee of his firm.

Use ‘any other’ when thing/person of the same group is compared.
